Founded in May of 1995, ECware is a true pioneeer of ECommerce. ECware released the first commercial version of ECmerchant (Ba$Kit) in 1996, which made history as the first turnkey ECommerce web application for the Microsoft Windows Server platform. ECmerchant is the first affordable turnkey ECommerce solution ever! To give you an idea how the landscape was back then, we were CyberCash's seventh partner when CyberCash was the only online payment system available! And of those seven partners, we were one of three solutions to offer integrated Internet payment processing: iCat, InterShop and ECmerchant. Over the years, many companies have attempted to imitate ECmerchant, but none have been able capture the essence of what makes ECmerchant the most "technically superb" (Ziff-Davis) yet easiest to use and "most affordable solution in its class" (E-Commerce Guide).

Over the past ten years, ECware has worked closely with e-commerce service providers and real-world merchants in an effort to provide the flexibility and robustness needed to facilitate the wide array of business platforms used by small to mid-sized businesses the world over. The result is a product that meets and even exceeds merchants needs in terms of both functionality and cost. And in response to a popular request we hear from merchants quite often, ECware will soon be opening the doors to an affardable e-commerce hosting service based on our time-tested award-winning software, ECmerchant.
